At Queens, the new General Education curriculum will guide students to their major through:

A Comprehensive First-Year Experience

A Range of courses called Perspectives on the Liberal Arts and Sciences (taken within the first 60 credits)

A Culminating Capstone or Synthesis Course

They can expect to learn those academic abilities that cut across their
entire college education, no matter what they are majoring in: using
written and spoken language effectively, doing research, learning new languages, understanding abstract and quantitative reasoning, using
technology, and making connections across the curriculum.
